This is a demo recording using the Canon EOS 5D MKII with a Canon EF 24-105F/4L at night while traveling in a car.

The video appears to stutter/slow down every couple of seconds, but the original recording and the reencode works fine.

I used manual focusing, image stabilization was turned on and it was shot handheld.
Bare in mind that this video is not about editing skills - it is just a recording demo for the MKII in bad lighting conditions.

Stats:
o) running time at about 5min
o) 1080p resolution
o) 1,35 gigabytes of raw video footage
o) converted and edited using imovie hd
o) exported as .m4v (136mb)

Special thanks go to Hausmeister & his Volvo who took me for a ride, Trent Reznor from Nine Inch Nails for the music and Canon for making this incredible piece of engineering.

If you like the music, got to http://www.nin.com - the song is licensed under creative commons, you can download it for free.
Spread the word!

  • @lordbk it were electronically closed not the mirrors but the sensor shuts down for a very short time

  • I have a 5D Mk II too.....

    actually the 24-105mm lens is pretty bad for low light video. I have a couple of videos posted with 50mm f1.8 lens....they are very good....check them out if you like...
